Tech/Engineering - Computers: Software
English term or phrase: application (here)
Es wird ein Software-Programm zum besseren Umgang mit den Anforderungen an Gesundheit und Sicherheit am Arbeitsplatz vorgestellt, das aus folgenden Konzepten besteht.
 Platform
 Applications
 Locations
 Users
Applications wird definiert als
"Applications are the specific type of information entered into the XX System. For the scope of this global performance Vy release, 7 applications have been created:
 Near Miss and Safety Observations
 Incident Management
- Injury/Illness sub form
- Vehicle Incident sub form
- Spill and Release sub form
 Security Incidents
 Commentary Drive Checklist
 Audits
 Be Safe
 Risk Assessment

Später folgt dann noch: "For the average user, an application is mostly composed of two parts:
1. The detailed Report Form, where you enter a new report.
2. The Inventory listing, where you search a list of reports which have already been created. This may also be referred to as a List."

Wie gebe ich "applications" hier am besten wieder? Momentan arbeite ich mit der Lösung "Anmeldungen", bin damit aber nicht wirklich zufrieden.

Modul


Explanation:
Sicherlich etwas freier übersetzt, aber im Kontext gut verständlich. Ansonsten könnte auch ein Kompositum mit erläuterndem Bestandteil gebildet werden, z. B. Eingabemodule.

App (plural Apps, formerly Anwendungen)


Explanation:
Nowadays, the terms App and Apps are used in German in almost all areas of computing and electronic devices (e.g. mobile phones).

Another example: in the German language version of their Creative Cloud software, Adobe even calls the individual programmes/software packages - like InDesign, Lightroom or Photoshop - Apps.

mytaxi - a German company - also uses App, as here: https://de.mytaxi.com/index.html

agree  Danik 2014: Internationalere Form! Kannte die Bezeichnung "Anwendung" in diesem Kontext gar nicht!
6 hrs
  -> Merci!

neutral  Dirk Wittke: Eher unwahrscheinlich, da der Begriff „App“ im Deutschen fast ausschließlich für Programme auf Mobilgeräten mit Touch-Bedienung (d. h. Tablets und Smartphones) verwendet wird. Auch Adobe nennt seine Desktop-Programme nach wie vor nicht Apps. [Mehr s. o.]

  -> As a professional photographer, I work almost every day with Lightroom and Photoshop CC on a desktop PC - Adobe calls them apps. http://gallery.leica-users.org/d/404704-2/Apps_screencap.JPG A quick screencap from my desktop as proof.
